                <text>Dear Dr. Stearns,&#13;
&#13;
I am sorry to do this again, but I am in a very sad need of money right at this moment, and need your assistance. I am enclosing to you an account of my expenses for the three hundred dollars which you sent to me on June 4th. last. I hope it will be satisfactory.&#13;
&#13;
I am convinced that New York is an expensive place to stay I can not buy a decent meal here for less than eighty cents, and two meals a day besides a breakfast is very expensive. The room here is very high considering the room that is assigned. I was forced to take a very expensive room until just recently when a cheaper room became vacant. I have paid all the larger amounts such as fees for the summer session to Columbia. But the room rent, I have not fully paid, because of the lack of funds. I had some bills to pay at Middlebury before I left.&#13;
&#13;
I have now but 15.91 dollars left. That will last me about a week for meals and some little incidentals. But I must have some more money so that I can pay the rest of my room rent and be a little more at ease with my finance. I have been very 'Jewish' since I came to New York, but even then, I will have to have more.&#13;
&#13;
As for going to shows, etc., I only went to one with Mary and her Friends. We all bought our own tickets. I haven’t been to a single movie at all. The only places that I have been to is Columbia University, and a Chinese resturant [sic]. Not that I want to go to all the places, but I just want to show you that I have been very careful with the money.&#13;
&#13;
I have been studying at night every night, and so far I have accomplished surveying the history of the City Manager Plan of Government, and read two other books on Government.&#13;
&#13;
Please let me have the money by the middle of the next week at the latest. If I can have it by Wednesday, I will be really thankful.&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely yours</text>

                <text>I received the money which you sent me yesterday, and I will assure you that that money will not he squandered.&#13;
&#13;
I received a letter from my father to-day. He stated very emphatically that I should remain in this country another [year] to get a degree or "learn some profession. I took it for granted that he meant Political Science. I am glad of a chance to further my studies, and I have made plans accordingly.&#13;
&#13;
Under the circumstances I will have to waste half of a year. I graduate from Middlebury at Mid-years. My original plan was to come to Columbia right at the beginning of the second semester to study for the rest of that semester and the whole of the next summer at the end of which I planned to receive my Master's degree, but unfortunately the rules at Columbia requires a year of residence in Columbia or its equivalent. That means that I can not get my master's degree at the end of the next summer session and I will have to stay here another semester in order to fulfill my one year’s residence.&#13;
&#13;
I have considered Harvard where I might do my graduate work, but my opinion about that institution is not very high. I have considered Syracuse. There is a special school there called the School of Citizenship and Public Welfare. This is an unique institution. I can get a five hundred fellowship there besides my tuition, because as a rule they give that to almost everyone that attends that school. It is a school and a part of Syracuse University. It is merely a special class of five or six. But what I have against it is the name of the school. A degree from Syracuse is worth no more to me anyway than a special privilege to go to a museum, because I don't like museums. In the same way I do not like Syracuse, and I believe that a diploma or a degree from there is not a honor, but almost a disgrace. Therefore I have also discarded that idea.&#13;
&#13;
Therefore the only institution left that I like is Columbia. I want to have your advise on the matter. I will have no chance to see you this summer, because I will be going up to Middlebury before you come down to Andover. But I will try to get down by Christmas time, if I do not have too much work to do.&#13;
&#13;
Trusting that you will have time to give me some sound advise [sic], I remain&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely yours</text>

                <text>Dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
Please do not think that I have forgotten you. Really life in New York is so dull that I actually have nothing to say. At my father’s request I am now studying typewriting and book-keeping, both of which are very interesting subjects.&#13;
&#13;
A classmate of mine invited me out to Long Island last Sunday when the hot spell was on. We had a swim on a private beach and a good ride around the country places. It was certainly nice of him to think of me, especially during that intolerable weather. We used to room in Morrow Dormitory on the same floor. He is working in the city, so we see each other rather often, For the last few days we are having cool weather again in New York, but no one can tell how long it’s going to stay. I suppose that the climate up at the Lakes is fine as usual.&#13;
&#13;
Our Minister to Enland [sic], Dr. Sze, is coming to the States during the early part of September, arriving Vancouver on the 7th. I presume that I shall have to report to him first before joining the mission headed by Dr. Tong. I would like to see you at least a week before that date if possible. That will mean a trip to Andover around the end of August. Can you inform me, Sir, whether you will be at home or in camp at about that time? Of course, I would prefer to see you at Andover; since it would be more convenient for me, but at any rate, I must say good-bye to you before leaving for China.&#13;
&#13;

                <text>Dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
As my summer school is drawing to a close, my room rent in the International House is expiring in a week. I shall need some more money for room from the 17th of August to about the 11th. of September, when I expect to go to Washington for an interview with Dr. Alfred Sze. In the mean time I shall need some more allowance for meals, etc. as well. So if you please, send me in your earliest convenience $100.00. As it is very hard for me [to] cash a check in New York, I would beg you to send this sum in form of money order if possible. Permit me to thank you. Sir, in advance in anticipation of you kindness.&#13;
&#13;
In view of the unsettled conditions existing again in China at this very moment, it is my guess that it is Just possible for the Nationalist Government to cancel Dr. Tong’s special mission to this country, of which my father’s letter made mention. In that Case my return to China will be again postponed. This is entirely a guess on my part but some-how I am becoming more and more afraid that this shall be true. In case it should turn out as I now suspect, I shall like to see you at Andover just the same; because I have something to talk over with you about the taking of my post-graduate work somewhere else than Columbia. Frankly I don’t like Columbia or the city; in fact, I hate them; I cannot understand how anyone can study under this atmosphere. This, however, is, as I said, only on condition my trip home will be cancelled, but I mention it here so that you might be able to give me some help in getting into Harvard or some other place that is different from Columbia.&#13;
&#13;
Hoping to hear from you soon. With the best wishes,&#13;
&#13;
Obediently yours,</text>

                <text>Dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
This is just a note to inform you concerning the marks which I received as a result of a summer’s study at Columbia University. They are the following:&#13;
&#13;
Problems of American Political Organization----B &#13;
Problems of American Governmemtal [sic] Functions----C &#13;
The Administration of Justice----B&#13;
&#13;
By virtue of passing all three of the subjects which I took this last summer, I have secured seven credits toward my graduation from Middlebury, that is provided these credits will be accepted, which they most likely will do.&#13;
&#13;
I have now merely fourteen (l4) points to pass for graduation. If things go along as they have been in the past, I will be able to get those credits by February and with a few credits to spare at that.&#13;
I am leaving for Middlebury in a very few days. I hope to be there by Friday at the latest. I plan to do a little work there before school starts.&#13;
&#13;
I am going to write to Syracuse and Harvard concerning the graduate school in Political Science, and when I have formed my opinion about them, I will be glad to have a talk with you sometimes this coming fall.&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely yours</text>
